Page 2

Many online marketers try too hard to sell before building a relationship with their potential customers. By trying too hard people will invariable question your motives. They may think things like "He is so friendly. I wonder what he wants from me" or "This guy is obviously only after my money". It is very easy to try too hard and to scare potential customers away.

Online selling and relationship building needs a subtle approach. Most people hate ending up on a website full of ads and flashing banners.
